Articles 2 and 5 of the Convention. Effective tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee notes the communication of the National Organisation of Trade Unions (NOTU), which was transmitted to the Government in September 2012, concerning the application of the Convention. The NOTU indicates that the level of tripartism is still very low, especially on issues of labour standards and that the Government did not respond to their request to provide a copy of the report on the implementation of Conventions and Recommendations. The Committee requests the Government to transmit any comments it may wish to make in response to the observations of the NOTU.
Furthermore, the Committee notes with regret that the Government has not provided any information on the application of the Convention since June 2004. The Committee trusts that the Government will be able to provide a report, including information in reply to the points raised in 2004:
The Government indicated that the application of this Convention continues to depend on active tripartite participation, and that consultations were undertaken particularly at the time of revision of the national labour legislation. It also stated that training on the procedures and content of international labour standards might increase the effectiveness of tripartite consultation. The Government stated that it has received technical and financial assistance from the ILO to hold seminars and workshops on consultative procedures. The Committee invites the Government to report on any progress achieved in this field.
Tripartite consultations required by the Convention. The Committee requests the Government to provide details on the consultations regarding international labour standards covered by the Convention (Article 5(1)).
Article 5(1)(c) and (e). The Committee recalls that the ILO Governing Body has invited States which are parties to certain Conventions that Uganda has ratified to contemplate ratifying the Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, 1989 (No. 169), and denouncing Conventions Nos 50, 64, 65 and 86. States parties to the Underground Work (Women) Convention, 1935 (No. 45), were invited to contemplate ratifying the Safety and Health in Mines Convention, 1995 (No. 176). Please indicate if tripartite consultations are envisaged on this matter.
Article 6. The Committee again requests the Government to indicate whether the representative organizations were consulted with regard to the production of an annual report on the operation of the procedures covered by the Convention and, if so, to state the outcome of these consultations.
[The Government is asked to reply in detail to the present comments in 2013.]
